About

The Wassenaar-born pianist Wolfert Brederode
studied at The Hague conservatory and made his debut in 1997 with
Alternate Views. In the years following this first album,
he released his own compositions and worked with Joost Lijbaart,
Natasha Kurek, Susanne Abbuehl and Michael Erian. Brederode's piano
playing could be called as disciplined as that of a classical
concert pianist, but he is able like no other to play an
unpredictable form of jazz. His music is not about solos, but
focuses mainly on roomy sounds and the right dosage of notes. In
Rotterdam he will share the stage with Swiss clarinet player
Claudio Puntin, drummer Samuel Rohrer and Norwegian bassist Mats
Eilertsen. With this quartet Brederode has so far released two
albums on the famous ECM label: Currents in 2007 and
Post Scriptum in 2011.
